Charcoal and firewood continue to play a vital role in energy solutions, especially in areas where access to electricity or gas is limited. Charcoal burns hotter and longer than traditional fuels, making it ideal for cooking, metallurgy, and small-scale industry. Firewood, on the other hand, remains a reliable and renewable heating source for both residential and rural communities.
Economically, charcoal and firewood are cost-effective, accessible, and support local economies—especially in developing regions. The industry also provides jobs in production, transportation, and sales. As global energy needs diversify, the importance of clean, renewable biomass fuels like charcoal and firewood is increasingly recognized, both for energy independence and environmental balance.
